The worst news has arrived for Tottenham. Players who want to sell are more likely to be unable to transfer due to injuries.

Spain's Football España reported on the 17th (Korea time) 'Tottenham player Brian Hill, who was loaned to Girona, is feared to be out of the season'

Football España confirmed Hill suffered a knee injury after failing to play against Valencia recently. The diagnosis is not yet complete, but if surgery is needed, it seems that he will no longer be able to play this season.

Coach Mitchell Sanchez also said, `Hill has a knee injury and needs consultation with a doctor. You need to know if you need surgery. If you have surgery, you can blow the whole season away."

For Tottenham, it's like a bolt out of the blue. Tottenham sent Hill on loan to Girona in the transfer window last summer. It was a natural choice because he lacked performance at Tottenham. Hill was considered a top prospect when he played in Seville in the past, but his career has been completely twisted since his transfer to Tottenham in 2021. Hill, who played only four games in the first half of last season, seemed to rebound by returning to his former team Sevilla in the winter transfer market, but lost his presence again after returning to Tottenham in the 2023-2024 season.

He played in the league with a little chance, but he was silent without scoring an attack point, and his frustrating performance exhausted even his teammates. In December 2023, there was a scene in which captain Son Heung-min caught him and expressed anger when Hill lost his chance to attack with a ridiculous shot against Brighton. Tottenham played Hill 43 games over a total of three seasons. Hill, however, did not score a goal in the process, and only had one assist. Even considering that Hill is not an outstanding scorer, his influence on the game was minimal.

However, Hill, who returned to La Liga, turned into a completely different player. He showed outstanding performance in 32 games with four goals and three assists. Since the opening, the rental performance has been clear, including being selected as the Player of the Month. The motivation was also certain. Hill extended his contract with Tottenham with a contract that included a buyout of 15 million euros (22.5 billion won), and Girona has priority on the contract. I worked even harder on the field because my full recruitment could be determined by my performance in Girona. Tottenham also had no choice but to look forward to Hill's performance in hopes of a successful sale.

However, the possibility of out injury this season makes it impossible to guarantee whether Girona will pursue Hill's full recruitment. Football España signed a contract that included a full recruitment option for "Girona," so Hill may not be the last in Girona due to this injury. Everyone involved explained that Hill's problem is desperate that he doesn't want surgery to be necessary.

There was a bad news that Tottenham's planned sale this summer would be disrupted. Both Tottenham and Girona are expected to change their transfer market plans significantly depending on Hill's condition.
